This is a new PSI kit called the Apollo Infinity. It reminds me of a larger, somewhat updated European Round Top pen. I like it. The blank is a PSI Lava Bright called Brown & Rose. I love being pleasantly surprised by a blank. This one is much prettier than I expected. I chose the antique brass kit specifically for this blank. I think they complement each other very well.

The refill tip doesn't stick out as far as it should. It's like the tube is a few thousandths too long, since I trimmed the blank right to the tube on both ends. I'll remember to trim it a little more on the next pen.

That's a very nice pen... like the combo of the blank and kit they go well together. The 'Derby' cap is reminiscent of the Whal Eversharp 'Skyline' pen of the 1940s.
